Welcome to MPC

Greetings Church Family!
Since our last gathering
at the Open Forum on January 25,
Session has had two major meetings with our Committee on Ministry appointed group and presbytery officials.
The next steps in our discernment process have been outlined
as a result of these team efforts.

Neil Trainer, Pastor of Calvin Presbyterian Church in Shoreline, will be MPC’s guest next Sunday evening, March 1, at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary. Pastor Trainer’s congregation engaged in a process of discernment a few years ago. He will speak to the MPC congregation about the process for discernment, decision making and policies within our denomination, PCUSA. Those attending his presentation are welcome to participate in a question and answer period following his talk. MPC Session members will present the next steps of the discernment process following the question and answer period. Please plan to attend.

In addition, Session will be present in the East Room after both services for the next several weeks to speak with those interested in the topics and issues raised as a result of discernment. A variety of articles, both supportive and non-supportive of PCUSA’s policies and actions will be available for review. The church family is strongly encouraged to read, study, pray and contemplate as we move together toward hearing God’s call for the future of our church.
